JW Anderson for Topshop Bat Jumper Dupe!

This is literally my best find in ages and I'm so excited to share it! As I was casually strolling into my local Internacionale I spotted a promotion in the window... it was only a dupe of the bat jumper from the JW Anderson collection at Topshop! Even better - it was half price as it was offer of the week at just £10. Ten pounds. A tenner. I didn't need anymore convincing, it was fate! I picked up the jumper in a medium.

I'm beyond happy with it! I mean, the genuine JW Anderson Bat Jumper on the Topshop site is £69.99 and it's sold out too. I'm not going to lie, I would never pay that much for a jumper, regardless of the designer! So there was no way I would ever own the real deal. But I quite liked the design, so I'm hugely pleased that I came across it. It's the same deal with the disco pant lookalikes I'm wearing here too!

Unfortunately, the jumper isn't on the Internacionale website right now. The jumper is now on the website! I know some people dislike 'dupes' and see them as ripping off brands and designers, but not everyone can afford the big names, but it's worth seeking alternatives and that's what my blog is all about. What do you think of dupes / this jumper?

The motif is very similar, but as it's not a brand logo or what have you, I guess they can't do anything about it really! The knit is completely different up close too - I wonder if that's anything to do with it?As far as I'm aware the money made back from lawsuits and the like is quite minimal, so I think sometimes designers just let these things slip by as they're almost not worth it in terms of the time and money it could cost them. I think it's a lot to do with 'imitation' vs 'fake'xx

I totally agree that spending £69.99 for a jumper is just way too over-priced but the print on the jumper is gorgeous. So lucky that you managed to find an identical jumper at such a cheap price - well done! You've got a great blog Robyn, now following :) xx
